Them Cat dozers burst into flames a lot?

Yes sir, Just about any of them do now days due to exhaust regeneration temps in the engine bays on trash machines. It's hard to imagine but wrappers, plastics, and other flammable settle in between cylinder heads, exhaust components, etc. And then light up during regen burns. Everything is heat blanketed to help prevent burn downs, it helps. But sucks when you gotta work on em.

Howdy everyone,

Boi I was a dumb shĩt yesterday the wood moved while I was using an small axe

My thumb then got in the way, Which left a flappy bit of skin it got washed and a plaster to hold the flappy bit down

It’s still throbbing 24hrs later

Spent 4 hours with hydraulic cement in the basement getting spots parged where we had water coming in. More rain overnight but it was dry this morning. We have 3 dehumidifiers running down there now.

Morning ballon knots. Looks like most are still in bed or peed the bed. Pretty quiet in here.

Good morning men, day! For some reason I am walking around smiling a lot lately. Grandchildren do that to you I guess. Dallas will find out when his two sons have kids.

The wind sounds Ike a freight train..

Morning/ Evening All. Was behind and didn’t have much chance to check in yesterday. Went to an open house at E’s middle school that he will attend next year. I must say that little country school punches outside its weight class. Still has Band, Home Ec (cooking and sewing) and Tech Ed (wood and metal shop). Has added in an eSports Club to their extras , has programming available non-stop from 7am to 6:30pm if wanted. They have a gardening club that donates to the local food bank, auto mech and do seasonal tires changes for seniors for free. Really something for everyone which is a good thing as there is no where to go. It’s basically in the middle of a field and nothing nearby to go to, not like some in the city that have a 7-11 or McDonalds across the street to draw kids away.

Good morning fellas. Forced to stay home today and wait for a lift gate service truck to deliver a reman NV4500 for my pickup.

Snowed more overnight. Enough that the plow went by a while ago.

Good morning folks. Yesterdays snow is gone, along with more residuals from small piles.
The wind that @redline4 speaks of is expected here as well for most of the day.

You know what they say: “If it’s too loud, you’re too old.”

Real trucks don’t shift themselves.

I’m not complaining. I enjoy having a manual transmission. Odometer reads 399,7++ miles and still going up everyday. Good service life if you ask me. Next one should last even longer now with me taking care of it and performing routine maintenance. When I changed oil in it initially, it already had brass from the synchros and was dark - likely had been overlooked by the previous owner most of its life.

Good morning. 34°F/1°C going up to 36°F/2°C. Calling for an inch of snow this morning. Haven't run the snowblower this season - that's a first for us.

then you turned it into one of those squatted ones ?

the standard transmissions in those scummers are geared way low you will be in third gear before you are 25 mph

I was thinking that.

Read CO detectors have a 5 to 7 year life expectancy.

Morning crew. Still pouring this AM. Weatherbroad said we got over 2 inches of rain just yesterday, I'm sure the total is higher now. Basement is still dry, only a little bit of water in the garage. Creek in the backyard is just over the banks and turning the yard into a marsh. The chickens seem to be enjoying it though.
